Overview
- The Eagles lost veteran right tackle Lane Johnson to an unexpected retirement and then traded center/guard Cam Jurgens to the Baltimore Ravens, creating sudden depth problems on the offensive line.
- Philadelphia received a 2027 fifth-rounder and a 2028 second-round pick in the Jurgens deal, a move league sources say increases the team’s roster and trade flexibility.
- GM Howie Roseman has told people around the league he is not surrendering on this season and may use the new draft capital either to acquire a player who can help now or to hold for the future.
- NFL reporting named running back Saquon Barkley and guard Landon Dickerson as names to watch ahead of the trade deadline, but both players remain on the roster and would likely require strong offers to be moved.
- The Eagles plan to keep Lane Johnson on the 53-man roster this year to reduce immediate salary-cap consequences and will monitor Jurgens’s concussion protocol as Baltimore evaluates his short-term availability.
